Modern is always good. Tea shops should have a light, airy, calm, and relaxing atmosphere. Coffee shops should have deep brown and red and light green colors. Tea shops would be nice with a beige wall with vines painted on, but nothing too intricate or picture like. Something simple, counters would look good with a light green, and tan color.
Having a lot of options is good, make sure to have an equal variety of herbal teas; nuts, fruits, etc. And have a fair number of black, oolong, and green teas.
I think I would definitely go to a tea shop that offered to mix teas. For instance a Red Rose/Orange Pekoe base, and when the base is steeped halfway, adding a herbal tea. I think mixing black, oolong, and green teas, with herbals would be good, but not with each other. And I would definitely use teas that are harvestedly in an environmentally safe way, and pay the workers a fair wage. People really appreciate free trade. And David's Tea (a chain tea shop in Canada, and perhaps elsewhere) had a good idea. They're having a day (May 12th) where Nurses get a free cup of the daily tea. You could one up that and either have a wider range (e.g. all hospital workers) or offer them one cup of their choice. Also, giving people a discount if they bring in a reusable cup, say 10-30 cents off. Lots of stores do that successfully. And for fair trade, not just teas but Sweeteners: honey, Stevia (A zero calorie, all natural, actually healthy sweetner. Seriously it rocks), and dairy: Almond milk, soy milk, choco. milk. And Iced tea would be nice too.

That's actually what I was thinking of doing! What's you're opinion on the # of tea options?
